| Core Tip |
Prosopagnosia is a rare condition marked by the loss of familiarity with previously known faces and the inability to learn to recognize new faces. We present a case of delayed diagnosis of prosopagnosia after a right hemisphere stroke who purely presented progressive "blurred vision" without complaints of any facial recognition impairment. Further functional magnetic resonance imaging revealed the visual recognition deficits were face-specific. This case report demonstrates that the presentation of prosopagnosia can be atypical, and visual difficulties could be a clinical manifestation solely of prosopagnosia. This case highlights the importance of routinely considering prosopagnosia as a potential impairment after stroke. |
